The Department of Exhibition and Performance Spaces are common areas where students can interact, relax, and socialize. DEPS produces 20+ exhibitions each year and hosts over 300 events including: fiction and poetry readings, film and video screenings and music, theater and dance performances. DEPS facilities are entirely supported by the Student Activity Fee and are only available for student-centered programming. Events must be free and open to Columbia College Chicago students.
Typically all DEPS spaces are requested through the Space Scheduler (see our Events Planning Checklist below for details).
